    anyone know of any distance learning schools that are looking for faculty.
    I have a PhD in Human Services
    a Masters in Counseling and an MBA, my
    Bachelors are in Accounting and Sociology/Religion and an Associate in Bible Studies.

    Thanks,

    It couldn't hurt to send some resumes and cover letters to various DL schools, letting them know you're interested in an adjunct position. I did the same thing to some residential colleges in my area, and was surprised at how many positive responses I got.

    Virtually all faculty help wanted ads run in the Chronicle of Higher Education -- more than 50 pages of them every week. I think they are available to non-subscribers at www.chronicle.com

    I see ads for at least two different magazines for adjunct faculty, but I have not seen the publications. If anyone has . . . I wonder if they have job listings.

    Until last week, I would also have recommended the ads in LinguaFranca, but my favorite academic publication has just gone belly up.

    Dear Howard,

    I gather by your list of credentials that you would be comfortable and appropriately qualified to affiliate with a Christian College. Taylor University in Indiana is preparing to expand their distance learning program significantly. They recently have begun the hunt for additional DL faculty. I would strongly encourage you to contact them. Perhaps you might find the appropriate contact information at their website: www.taylor.edu

    Thanks, CL. Yes, I would be comfortable. In addition to the RA degrees I have a Certificate from Memphis Theological Seminary that is "equavilent" to an MDiv. I am ordained in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Again, many thanks.

    Another good source for such positions is http://www.higheredjobs.com. They often will have as many or more positions listed as the Chronicle.

    This is a good suggestion. On occasion, various CCCU institutions, most notably Indiana Wesleyan University, use this site to advertise faculty positions for their distance degree programs.
